Is difficult for the Prosecutors to prove their case- Lawyer Amaliba

Private Legal Practitioner who doubles as a legal team member for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Lawyer Abraham Amaliba has revealed that, it will be difficult for the Police to prove their case against Oliver Barker- Vormawor at the court.

Oliver Barker-Vormawor has been charged with treason felony.

This is an offence provided for in section 182(b) of Ghana’s Criminal offences Act.

This provides; “Section 182—Treason Felony. A person is guilty of treason-felony and shall be punishable as for first-degree felony who —

b) prepares or endeavours to carry out by unlawful means any enterprise which usurps the executive power of the State in any matter of both a public and a general nature.“

Last Thursday, Mr Vormawor took to social media to threaten a coup following pictures emerging from the Majority Leader’s 65th birthday bash showing an ‘E-levy’-designed cake.

He posted, “If this E-Levy passes after this cake bullshit, I will do the coup myself. Useless Army!”

But Lawyer Amaliba speaking to the media said, the Police knew that, Oliver Barker will not get a bail hence decided to go a District court instead of a High Court.

According to him, the Police wants to punish him (Oliver Barker) hence charging him with such a felony.

He added that, Oliver Barker can spend beyond 15 years or sentence to life imprisonment if found guilty.

To the Editor,

To the Editor, Why I didn’t show up for the morning news production on Monday On that fateful day (Monday, April 4 th 2022) I was preparing to come and produce the morning news despite the heavy rainfall and lack of electricity in my area. I was ready to come around 4:30am when my father ordered me to wait due to crime rate in my area and especially such an ungodly hour. From where l stay, I have to board a taxi to the main road before getting a car to work but unfortunately, there was no car at the time I arrived there around 5:10am because of the rain and lack of electricity. I had no other option than to wait because I might be attacked if I decided to walk to the main road that’s why I couldn’t get here on time to produce to morning news. Thank you                                     ...
